I heard the policeman coming down the lane, and knew I could not escape unobserved that way.

Then if I took the path to the station I fancied he might see me in the moonlight.

I ran across the garden by the wall and got over the fence amongst the corn, where I lay concealed.

Then I saw you coming round the corner.
You climbed the wall and went into the park.

After that I waited till after eleven, when the policeman entered the house, summoned by the servants.
